Demonic in Still Loving Youth

12.28.2014

Under the imprint of Scandal, Still Loving Youth (SLY) talks and collaborates with artists, illustrators, designers, public figures and individuals from around the world. Published quarterly, this time SLY gave us the chance to join forces for their second issue “Types Are Fun”. The initial brief was to create a set of font that will be recreated by preschool kids afterwards. We were thinking about putting together something contrary from the idea of children, and their simple way of thinking. That’s how we went with Blackletter type. The ornamental and complicated sense of Blackletter’s anatomy will be an interesting contrast compared to children’s simple and often spontaneous expressions.

The brochure and brand book for I Like Gym and 7th edition of Versus Magazine cover cunningly sit in the print section.

Our featured works in the 2nd volume include Versus’ “We Are Stupid” designer postcard and Cork&Screw’s “Eat” Bag.
